Lynn wants to make 10kg of mixed nuts in which 1/4 of the nuts are almonds. If 1/3 of the Good Shell nuts and 1/5 of the Nutalicious nuts are almonds, how much of each type should be used in the mixture?
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Almonds Equation: (1/3)g + (1/5)n = (1/4)10
\n" ); document.write( "Quantity Equation: g + n = 10 kg
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Modify::
\n" ); document.write( "20g + 12n = 15*10
\n" ); document.write( "20g + 20n = 20*10
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract and solve for \"n\"::
\n" ); document.write( "8n = 5*10
\n" ); document.write( "8n = 50
\n" ); document.write( "n = 6.25 kg (amt of Nutalicious nuts)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "g = 10-6.25 = 3.75 kg (amt of Good Shell nuts)
